Kunnskapsteorier for lærerutdanningsrelatert forskning er et felles sammenbindende emne i ph.d.-programmet i utdanningsvitenskap for lærerutdanning.

I læringsforløpet skal studentene styrke sitt kunnskapsgrunnlag for arbeid med kunnskapsteoretiske spørsmål knyttet til forskningsfeltet utdanningsvitenskap for lærerutdanning. Gjennom emnets breddeorientering skal studentene tilegne seg teoretisk oversikt i et komparativt og internasjonalt perspektiv. Det legges videre vekt på et analytisk perspektiv gjennom kritiske studier av sentrale tekster og på teorier, temaer og tilnærminger knyttet til profesjon, yrke, arbeid, kommunikasjon, kontekst og kultur som er relevante for utdanningsvitenskap relatert til lærerutdanning.

The course employs a wide definition of entrepreneurship that includes personal development, creativity, self-reliance, initiative taking and action orientation, i.e. becoming entrepreneurial. The course aims to introduce students to practical entrepreneurship through an action-based approach to value creation. Students will work in teams to solve real-life challenges.

The course is a common course for the programme options Art and Dissemination and Fashion and Industry. It provides an introduction to business knowledge, innovation and project management in development processes relating to creative work.

The course facilitates internationalisation and is open to guest and exchange students with a relevant education at the same Level.

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and competence:

Knowledge

The student is expected to demonstrate knowledge of:

• project management processes, techniques and tools
• Design Thinking and/or other relevant creative development processes, techniques and tools
• professional practice in the art, design and cultural fields
• processes and methods used for entrepreneurial work and innovation of relevance to these fields
• ethical foundations within these fields
• information sources and support for business startups

Skills

The student is able to:

• utilize processes and methods and tools for innovative and creative work in teams
• identify and analyze information that is relevant to conducting an entrepreneurial project
• implement, execute, and follow up on a project within a specified deadline
• reflect on knowledge and experience from their own field and use it to develop business concepts
• reflect on their professional practice, teamwork competence, achieved results, and learning as a basis for their own ongoing development.

Competence

The student demonstrates competence of:

• planning and carrying out tasks independently and as part of a team
• entrepreneurial thinking
• leading themselves and others in different development projects
• using relevant forms of communication in an international context

The course employs a problem-based learning approach, which is supported by lectures and project tutoring. The project will be carried out as group work in teams of four to five students. The primary objective is to define, research, and conceptualize an entrepreneurial project.

Students will be introduced to theories and methods that are relevant to the course's scope. This will serve as preparation for active participation in the course's problem-based learning methods, which integrate theory and practice.

The group work entails knowledge sharing, collective decision-making, academic discussions, action coordination, and mutual critical feedback. Student groups will collaborate closely with their supervisors and external partners, such as organizations, businesses or other project groups.

Entrepreneurial projects may require standard contracts for student projects as provided by OsloMet.

• Muntlig presentasjon av utkast til individuelt essay.
• 80 prosent tilstedeværelse på kurset. Det gis organisert undervisning i form av forelesninger, seminarer og veiledning. Undervisningen er profesjonsrettet. Veiledning knyttes i vesentlig grad til utforming av essay. Studentene organiseres i mindre grupper med tanke på forberedelse til diskusjon og respons på skriftlige arbeider. Arbeidsformen forutsetter studentaktivitet og samhandling. Den gir en kompetanse som ikke kan tilegnes kun ved lesing av pensum, men må opparbeides ved tilstedeværelse, i reell dialog mellom studenter og forelesere. Kun i spesielle tilfeller kan fravær utover 20 prosent kunne godtas etter søknad. Ved ikke godkjent fravær vil studenten miste retten til å få essayet vurdert.
